“We are so excited how this year’s event turned out,” says TCW co-founder and Executive Director Chris Lisle.  “When this idea came to fruition five years ago, we never imagined how big it would be or the impact it would have.  Here’s to 2016!”

“This is my favorite workshop to date,” adds TCW co-founder Erik Parker.  “The number of attendees as well as the quality of the content make this year’s event awesome!

Every year, the Touring Career Workshop benefits a local non-profit and this year TCW partnered with Make-A-Wish Middle Tennessee. Make-A-Wish Middle Tennessee President & CEO Beth Torres addressed the crowd with heart-warming wish stories.
